Compression of images

Andries Louw Wolthuizen edited this page Jul 17, 2018 · 2 revisions

GZip compression is disabled, because it increases filesizes for JPEG-images, and it increases CPU-load on client and server. JPEG-compression is honored, and is by default used when requesting BMP-images (they are converted to JPEG). If you want to modify compression for JPEG-images, you can do so by setting the &q= parameter.
